Abstract: | The fungicide diclobutrazol (2RS,3RS)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4,4-dimethyl-2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)pentan-3-ol was irradiated by ultra-violet light in methanol solution using (1) borosilicate glass apparatus and (2) quartz apparatus. The major differences observed were that photodegradation occurred more rapidly in (2) than (1) and more breakdown products were found in the former. Using g.c.-m.s. ten compounds were detected in (1) of which five were identified. In (2) twelve of the eighteen compounds observed were identified and the major component was 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,4-dimethyl-2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)pentan-3-one. The compounds reported were formed by oxidation, loss of chlorine or by cyclisation. This previously unreported cyclisation gave the s-triazolo-(5,1a)isoquinoline ring system. |
